A gradual handover feels like the right thing but my unstable psyche really wants to see the chaos of completely disappearing from a zillion projects all on the same day and watch a good portion of the scene and everything tiny I tried building burn.
This past week has really been a blessing. Just cooking, baking and spending time with the only person I wanna be around without a care in the world. Honestly I wish I could just stay at home with Sabreena and the cats more often and forget about work and responsibilities.

It was a good run. I mean I tried giving it my all but don't think I can take the pressure any longer. Just wanted to satisfy my younger self, I suppose. Sort of a "one last go at it just to prove that I can" kinda thing.
Maybe now I can sleep better & focus on my little family.

Would love you to see you in either, bro! 🙏
It's a tough life, but I wouldn't trade playing live music night in and night out for anything. Insanely grateful for all the people I had the pleasure of sharing a stage with in the past 2 years.
ماشفوفش كلب فيكم شهر سيبتمبر اللي جي يا أوغاد 🙏
So you got all these people playing with 5 string active Bass guitars and everyone seems to be losing it over them.
Enters the recording studio my autistic ass with a passive P Bass that sits beautifully in the mix and almost gets the engineer to tear up just the right amount.
انا تقريبا وصلت لشبه حيطة سد في حياتي العملية سواء في الطب او الموسيقى. مش حاسس ان قادر اتخطى الحيطة دي وماسك فيها كا شماعة بعلق عليها عدم قدرتي على التطور او التقدم في اي حاجة من كتر الارهاق والتعب والقلق. حاسس ان مهمة ذاكرت واتمرنت هفضل في النقطة دي حبة حلوين اوي.
بس يمكن علشان كنت متخيل ان انا كنت هبقى مرتاح نفسياً اكتر لما اوصل هنا عقلي الباطن مازال متمسك بفكرة ان الفشل الحتمي والتحطيم الذاتي هو الحاجة الوحيدة اللي مش هقدر اتخطاها.
But when have our expectations ever gone according to plan?
I'm at a point where I can't handle listening to Pink Floyd lyrics let alone play and sing that shit live. I am so close to screaming like a maniac and running off mid gig.
Honestly I can't handle 90% of the music I'm playing right now. I seriously need more Tuwa music in my life, or maybe start an Emo Math Rock band purely for self gratification.
I was supposedly studying aladdin's first three soundtracks from a broadway version for a gig next week and ended up studying and playing the entire broadway on bass and I'm not sure how I feel about it.. or myself...
